Two major new studies by an international team of researchers have pinpointed the key factors that ensure a livable planet for humans, with stark results.

I’d say between this story and the video below from yesterday’s ‘earth shattering’ news, humanity has alot to think about.  We are a spoiled kid, getting drunk every night, doings drugs, gorging on crap food and so forth, and we had better change our ways or we are all dead. A slow cancerous, agonizing death.  It might feel like livin’ or ‘progress’ as the politicians call it but what it is is far from it.  Wake up!
